Better than YouTube (Almost)

Yesterday, the Firefox folks wrapped up their Firefox Flicks 30-second commercial contest, picking three winners and two honorable mentions. I'm a huge fan of viral marketing, and Mozilla is trying to make the viral easy. Below each movie are links for emailing, embedding or adding to Websites any of the videos. I wonder how many commercials MySpacers will add to their blogsites.

I've long said enthusiasts are the best marketers. Firefox users can not only contribute to improving the open-source browser but promote the heck out of it, too, and share those promotions with friends.

But I've got to say that I liked the honorable mentions, "This is Hot" and "Give Me the Soap" better than the winners.
